Clicking from front hub on 4X4

I noticed a clicking sound coming from my from front hub on my 72 GMC 4X4 the other, it doesn't do it while going forward, only in reverse. I never paid any attention to any sounds from the hub before so I have no idea how long it's been doing this or if it's normal. The only reason I noticed was because I was parked next to a wall and the sound reflected back to me. I replaced the hubs with new MileMarker Supreme hubs a few months ago if that makes a difference. Any ideas? Is this normal? Thanks!

Make sure the tabs on your brake pad [outboard pad ] is tight against the caliper and not banging around very common problem

This a more definate clicking sound, very similar to the sound the cassette makes on my mountain bike, like pawls clicking
